About the race

The Sedbergh Hills Fell Race is scheduled for Sunday 15th August 2027 and is based at the People's Hall, Howgill Lane, Sedbergh.

The route covers a distance of 22.5 km (14 miles) and includes 1830 m (6004 ft) of climb. The race runs across the Howgill hills, which are described as vast, grassy terrain with steep climbs and descents combined with sections of fast running. The combination of sustained ascent and varied ground means the course demands sustained effort and attention to footing.

The course is described as a tough classic that tests fell runners through a mixture of open grassy slopes, steep gradients, and faster runnable sections. The venue is identified as the People's Hall on Howgill Lane in Sedbergh, which serves as the event base and meeting point for competitors.
